Bandit the bull was chained up his entire life - until one day, a man came to rescue him. In the video, we see the bull's emotional reaction to finally being set free.

All across the globe, millions of bulls like Bandit live their lives in chains (many of which die without ever getting the chance to experience freedom). Fortunately for Bandit, he was chosen to be saved by an animal refuge called the Gut Aiderbichl. One of the sanctuary's workers named Christian was given the honor of releasing Bandit from his confined stable. At first, the man pets the bull through the bars. It seems as if affection may be new to Bandit, who falls to his knees with Christian's touch.

Then, he is finally taken out of the stable. Right away, the bull jumps and moves around before collapsing into a large pile of hay. It's obvious that he is enjoying not being caged. He is then loaded onto a truck to go back to the sanctuary. When they get there, he is let go in a large room of hay where he performs a "dance of freedom." In the end, we see him standing next to his rescuer Christian with his head pressed up against the man's leg. There's no doubt that it was Bandit's way of showing appreciation to his friend - for a second chance at life.
